About my CJ5

This is my first jeep, purchased in September with 101k miles.  It's completely stock except for the tires and the CB.  It has stock 3.54 gearing with 31" TSLs.  I have 1.5" wheel spacers to bring the narrow track axles to wide track stance.  D30 up front and AMC 20 in back w/1 piece shafts.  Iron Duke 4 cyl engine is slow on the street, but tough on the trails.  I'm loving this jeep!  Future mods include: rock rails this weekend, a locker up front in the next 2 months, and by the end of next year a lift and 33's.
